Warhammer Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Owlcat_Eyler]

I would like to hear about your favourite RPGs (plot and mechanics in particular) as well

At a cursory look, a broad list of what I consider S-Class would be Dark Sun: The Shattered Lands, Fallout (Original), The Temple of Elemental Evil, Geneforge (any) Arcanum, Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark, Neverwinter Nights II: Mask of the Betrayer, Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Fallout: New Vegas, Planescape: Torment, Kotor II, System Shock 2, Deus Ex (Original), Mass Effect (Original only, heavy emphasis on the only), Prey (2017), Shadowrun: Dragonfall, Expeditions: Conquistador, any FromSoftware Soulsbourne, Persona (any), FFVI, the GBA-era Fire Emblems, Fire Emblem: Three Houses. I might add more or remove some of these after further reflection. If Zelda counts as an RPG I would throw in Majora's Mask and A Link to the Past for sure.

The A-Class would be far more expansive and would include both Owlcat RPGs. Kingmaker could almost have been S-class for me but simply took too long to finish. I also dislike real-time with pause for the most part, that didn't help.

That's quite a list, very interesting though. Thank you for sharing!

Larian made a huge impact with their bear. So now Owlcat needs to step up their game.
That is why I propose the addition of Slaneesh daemonette s&m romance and asari... errr Tau diplomat waifu.
Get to work, Owlcat, chop chop!

I tend to care most about story, as long as the mechanics can support that story (and sometimes, even when they can't). That said, this list is not exclusively storyfag games.

Favourite RPGs: Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, Planescape: Torment, Baldur's Gate, Mass Effect 1, Alpha Protocol (!), Fallout, Chrono Trigger, Disco Elysium (yeah, yeah, fuck all of you), Wizardry 8, Ultima IV

Also, it's dumb that we can fuck a bear in 2023 but not a Sister of Battle. Just saying.

The holiest Sister of Battle cannot be compared with an animal XD

What? No Nurgle she-cultist for a literally jaw-dropping romance? Or a romance with a Khornate Berserker that will end in blood? Or a Tzeench cultist where she's secretly double-timing you? I'm disappoint.
The last one would be the best as you apparently have an already accurate depiction of the Eldar's behaviour regarding humies.

codex - REEEEEEEEEEE! ROMANCES ARE BAD AND CRINGE!
also codex - gib me romances plis! the more degenerate - the better!

codex retards are offended by bear scene not because it's degenerate, but because it's just not degenerate enough anymore. it's soooooo vanilla. sooooooooo first half of 2023, and currently it's july already.

Truth. That's what I was always telling Rusty when he was screeching about trannies in wrathfinder, while simping for Larian degenerates that brought us gay sex with a big red lizard. He just wanted more explicit hardcore content, probably gushing over the bear stuff.

It is offensive in general because degenerate. It’s offensive to us because derivative in addition to being degenerate.

Sound like a pussy, just act like you actually want to. If you don't get along with others because of this, why would you want to stick around?

The doctrines are being balanced yet and worked on. So don't pay much attention right now. But I still passed your video on to our designers to check.
Hunter is powerful right now, yes. Argenta can be a killing machine with this Tier II doctrine.

you mean shooting her on the spot? yes, that's the only correct way to interract with spehs elves.

But it's funnier to see how high her Farseer kill count can reach.

Appreciate it, flat damage buffs can get very good with burst weapons. You can pull a similar feat with any adept's clue and a full auto weapon as well. Pasqal is good for dumping stacks on one character and then deleting them. Takes a bit more work, but Fighters can deal a good amount of damage too. Will the strategist Doctrine make some kind of return did that end up fully scrapped with the changes from Alpha?

There should be a Reinhardt self-insert into the game, the character would be the most racist anti-elven character to be found in the game.
